Product and method for temporary shaping of keratin-containing fibers

a technology of keratin-containing fibers and fibers, which is applied in the field of cosmetic products, can solve the problems that the combination of holding strength and long-lasting hold (high-humidity curl retention) is not always sufficiently guaranteed, and the current availability of styling products can still be improved

Benefits of technology

This patent describes a cosmetic product and method for temporarily shaping keratin-containing fibers, such as hair. The product contains two types of copolymers, which are made from specific monomer units. The proportions of these copolymers in the product are important, and can affect the results achieved. The method involves loading the fibers with the cosmetic product and then temporarily fixing them into shape. The technical effect is a safe and effective way to temporarily shape hair, with precise results that can be achieved using specific copolymers.

Problems solved by technology

In principle, not every polymer and not every polymer blend is suitable for the manufacture of hair styling products.
In particular, styling products that are currently available can still be improved in the sense that a good combination of holding strength and long-lasting hold (high-humidity curl retention) is not always sufficiently ensured.

Embodiment Construction

[0013]The following detailed description is merely exemplary in nature and is not intended to limit the invention or the application and uses of the invention. Furthermore, there is not intention to be bound by any theory presented in the preceding background or the following detained description.

[0014]It is contemplated herein to make additional suitable polymer combinations available that are characterized by good film-forming and / or setting characteristics, and have a very high holding strength without having to sacrifice flexibility and good moisture resistance—particularly perspiration and water resistance. The polymer combinations were to also be suitable for the manufacture of cosmetic products having a high level of chemical and physical stability and be easy to apply.

[0015]This was achieved as contemplated herein through a combination of two specific, mutually different copolymers. The following is made available by the present disclosure:[0016]1. A cosmetic product for tem...

Abstract

Cosmetic products and methods for temporarily shaping keratin-containing fibers using the cosmetic products are provided herein. A cosmetic product for temporarily shaping keratinic fibers includes a cosmetic preparation. The cosmetic preparation contains at least one copolymer a1) that is constructed from at least the following monomer units: (meth)acrylic acid, (meth)acrylic acid alkyl ester, and (meth)acrylic acid hydroxy alkyl ester. The cosmetic preparation further contains at least one copolymer a2) that is constructed from at least the following monomer units: styrene, and at least one of acrylic acid or methacrylic acid. The proportion by weight of copolymers a1) and a2) with respect to the total weight of the cosmetic preparation is about 1.0 to about 10 wt %.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims priority to German Patent Application No. 10 2015 225 200.0, filed Dec. 15, 2015, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.TECHNICAL FIELD[0002]This disclosure relates to a cosmetic product for setting hair and for the temporary reshaping of keratinic fibers, particularly human hairs, the composition containing a combination of two specific copolymers.BACKGROUND[0003]The temporary structuring of hairstyles for an extended period of time lasting up to several days generally requires the use of setting agents. Hair treatment products that serve to temporarily shape the hair therefore play an important role. Such products for temporary shaping usually contain synthetic polymers and / or waxes as the setting agent. Products for supporting the temporary reshaping of keratin-containing fibers can be manufactured as hair spray, hair wax, hair gel, or styling mousse, for example.[0004]The most important chara...
